Thanks for the advise. I guess I just hate being dependent on medicine. I am SURE that is common with this condition. I have read sooo many books, and gotten sooo much advise, I think I have too much information sometimes. Well, thanks for the reply, and I hope this site gives me some insight

Welcome, jneillusa. I hope you will gain much from reading the existing posts on the site and from interaction with the others in the group. No one likes to be on medication, but it serves a purpose. Coming off it should not be a goal before the other problems are resolved. For the moment, I encourage you to take advantage of what our site has to offer. Our Panic program is free and can help you with panic attacks. The diary is there to record your attacks and fear level. You can print it out too. Congrats on not using alcohol any more. That is a big accomplishment.

Hello everyone. I found this site last night, but had to wait to get my password. Well, I have been suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, OCD, and alcoholism for about 15 years. I used alcohol to self-medicate for over 10 years. When I stopped drinking I really had to deal with the problem. I am a professional in Law-Enforcement, so not many people are aware of my problem. I have never had a BAD episode at work. I believe it is a control issue. I just wanted to say hello, and I hope to recieve some help, and hopefully give some help. I am currently taking Zoloft(50mg), and Klonopin as needed. I just finished the program "Attacking anxiety and Depression" by Lucinda Bassett. I bought it off E-Bay for 1/3 of the price. It really seems to be helping. I want to come off my meds., but it scares me to even think about!

Greetings to this great site...I hope you find many answers and insights. I have had panic attacks for years - and, when I look back, my Mother had them, also. I sometimes wonder, what was 'panic disorder' called 'back then', say 50 years ago? Or, is it a new dilemma? My family used to say my Mother was having a 'spell'. Does anyone have any thoughts on the subject of 'what was panic called 50-60 even 100 years ago'? Bye for now...
